Those $200 jeans are made in the very same Third World sweatshop by the very same Third World seamstresses making the same 75 cents per day as the $25 jeans you can get at Wal-Mart. The only difference is the label they sew on at the end of the process.

No one ever lost a nickel underestimating the intelligence of the American public. Or, rather, mis-underestimating it....
